Apple posts two new iPhone ads

Apple has posted two new iPhone ads tonight. Both ads seem to target Joe Average and spotlight situations we find ourselves in every day.

The first, called "First Steps," targets moms and grandparents who want to show/never miss a single moment of the new tyke's life. The mom uses the iPhone 3GS to record her son's first steps, sends the video file as a MMS, and then starts a conference call with the grandparents to talk about the video. The ad ends with the mom saying "We would never have shared all that without the iPhone."

The second ad is titled "On Hold" and presents a situation we're all too familiar with. A man calls 1-800-204-7450 and is put on hold (before you try, I already called the number. A voicemail answers that says "At the tone, please record your message." I didn't leave one). The man then checks his email, pays a credit card bill, buys Monopoly from the App Store, and plays the game -- all while on hold.

As always, the apps spotlighted in the ads can be found here.

Yeah, this is a situation I find myself in often.

Is the hand holding the iPhone small or is the iPhone getting bigger?!
Just wondering...

I find it more creepy how the hand stays perfectly still throughout the advert…

Yes, one finger smaller.

I should have been using my iPhone when I called Apple Customer Service - I was on hold with them for 45 minutes before someone was available.

That was without a doubt the longest time I have ever been on hold. By the time someone was available I had almost forgotten why I was calling.

I googled the number and found something. Actually, it was nothing. This was the only page that came up. I hit 'show omitted results' and a bunch of other sites running this same story came up. I wonder what the number is...

No luck with reverse phone lookup on the White Pages app either. :P
